It is very thin for the running time and feels overstretched and bloated, giving the impression the film is too long.
It takes a while to get going and there are some real pacing problems in the final act, which has its good points but generally is very tedious. It is easy to say forget the story, however this is a strong case of being very hard to do so when there is so little to it. It is a decent and fun enough ride, but it could have been so much more and has some glaring flaws. Personally am on the fence with 'Salazar's Revenge' and consider it one of the weaker entries generally of the series, with only 'At World's End' being weaker. 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Salazar's Revenge' has its defenders but has also been met with underwhelmed disappointment by critics and most fans. They all have great merits, namely great visuals, exciting action, Hans Zimmer's music, Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush and Bill Nighy. They have their flaws, 'Dead Man's Chest' did get too frenetic sometimes, 'At World's End' was overlong, bloated and needlessly bloated and 'On Stranger Tides' (which has been dumped upon by many here but to me it was a very enjoyable film, one of the better sequels, and much better than given credit for, which is not going to be a popular opinion) had an underdeveloped and forced romantic subplot and too much filler that could have been trimmed in some places. Its sequels are not on the same level, and while they are a long way from flawless none of them are awful films either. This is currently my favorite lego set.The best film in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise will always be the first, which is still a terrific film fourteen years later (has it really been that long, feels like only yesterday when first seeing it when it first came out). These are small pieces, so make sure to open the bags currently so that you do not lose any. It has 2300 pieces(if you include the extra pieces it is) and about 16 bags to hold them all. It is an excellent display model and will take up some space. I recommend this to older POTC fans and lego fans alike.
I would not recommend this set to anyone younger than 14. There are only two main functions, the collapsing mast, and the opening rib cage. In this set, you get 8 mini figures, (all of whom are very well detailed), two unique and reasonably sized ghost sharks, and one massive ghost ship. If you get it on sale like me you are even luckier.
You will get the very large box, then you will finish it, and you will be in awe to how big it really is. This set is HUGE! It is 2 ft long and 1 and 1/2 feet tall. Let me just say this: the box does not do the set justice. This set was the first set that was over 2000 pieces that I have ever built.
